Communities developing services for themselves

The
next meeting of the Inverness West District Partnership will be on Friday 19
June at the Phipps Hall in Beauly.

The
partnership is a multi-agency group that looks at services for children and
adults and considers how they can be improved or changed to better
meet the needs of local communities.

The
emphasis on the June meeting will be on communities developing services for
themselves with support from The Highland Council, NHS Highland and voluntary
groups.

Chairperson
of the Inverness West District Partnership Councillor Margaret Davidson said:

“Communities
are increasingly looking at the need in their own locations and are coming up
with solutions that often involve them delivering services with the public
sector. They know what they need and usually know best how to provide it. The
Partnership meeting is a great opportunity for the public sector to hear what
communities are saying and to respond to that.”

The
meeting is open to everyone and will start at 10am and run till about 12.30pm.
